M54 63 Joan of Arc Kit

Joan of Arc, with banner high and sword drawn, leading the charge against the English on her magestic steed for the glory of France.

Joan of Arc, French, Jeanne d'Arc, Born ca 1412 - 30 May 1431, nicknamed The Maid of Orléans, is a folk heroine of France and a Roman Catholic saint. She was born a peasant girl in what is now eastern France. Claiming divine guidance, she led the French army to several important victories during the Hundred Years' War, which paved the way for the coronation of Charles VII of France. She was captured by the Burgundians, transferred to the English in exchange for money, put on trial by the pro-English Bishop of Beauvais Pierre Cauchon for charges of "insubordination and heterodoxy", and was burned at the stake for heresy when she was 19 years old.

Medieval Knights Mounted, 54mm Model Soldiers

All the figures are made from white metal and are available as unpainted kit, castings all with painting instructions and colour photo, they can also be supplied fully hand painted in matt.

Profession: French Soldier and National Heroine

Why Famous: Nick-named "the maid of Orleans" Joan of Arc was born around 1410 into a peasant family and into a France beset by internal conflicts and under attack from the English.

At the age of 12 she claimed to have had her first vision of saints and angels eventually exhorting her to aid France in driving out the English.

Arriving with the French army she successfully led attacks that broke the seige of Orleans in 1430 dressed in a suit of armour. She later helped led the army to Rheims where King Charles VII was crowned.

Joan of Arc was captured during an engagement at Compiegne and she was put on trial by the English supporter the French Bishop Pierre Cauchon.

The trial began in January 1431. Joan of Arc withstood days of interrogation before being found guilty of the charge of dressing in men's clothing. Joan agreed to don women's clothing but when she wore men's clothing again to avoid rape she was condemned for heresy and burnt at the stake on the 30th May.

A retrial 25 years later found her innocent. She was canonized by the Catholic Church in 1920.
